Looking Back 3years ago today

For the ones that know me well, you know that today is the day 3 years ago my dad passed at 11:45pm. My step-sister passed on the 14th 3 years ago. This time of the year i get really sad, but it has gotten better, considering i go to counciling once a week. And i still have nightmares every once in a while of that night. But i have learned that life does go on, and though they are not here, they are still with me and my family in our hearts. Bryer still looks at the sky and says his papa is up there, though he was just a baby when my dad died, he remembers him. Kids see and know things that us adults don't see and know. That is what is so amazing about children. Though my dad was not there for ms K i believe he was watching and was right there with her. I know some people don't believe that kinds of stuff but i do and i am not afraid to say it.
There are days that are going to be hard for everybody, but at the end of the day it will all be okay no matter what. and you might think why is all of this happening to me? everything happens for a reason, god will not put you through something that he knows you will not be able to get through.
I went to Kansas, Oklahoma this weekend to put the flowers on his grave and it saddened me, nobody had been there in a while, wilted flowers. I decorated it up for thanksgiving, making sure it was sure to stand out. I am a big decorater and i know it might sound stupid to decorate a grave for thanksgiving but it really makes me feel like he is having a thanksgiving to. I have not talked to my ex-step mom since november of last year, but it shows she moved on and doesn't want to put flowers on there anymore.

This song below was sung at my dads funeral the day before thanksgiving 3 years ago. so it means alot to me.




I know your life on earth was troubled
And only you could know the pain
You weren't afraid to face the devil
You were no stranger to the rain
(Chorus)
Go rest high on that mountain
Son, your work on earth is done
Go to heaven a shoutin'Love for the Father and the Son

Oh, how we cried the day you left us
We gathered 'round your grave to grieve
I wish I could see the angels' faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing
Repeat
(Chorus)
Go to heaven a shoutin'Love for the Father and the Son

They have been found

They were found yesterday afternoon. They got stuck just after shooting a deer and were trying to leave. I guess it was sleeting and snowing. Luckly they let the truck idol all night so they kept warm.
I have not put any pics of the holiday hair bow and new bags i have made because somehow the pics are not on my camera card anymore but i will have that fixed soon hopefully.
thank you for all the prayers of my two friends

Election Day!!

hello, happy election day! i can not wait to find out who is going to win tonights.
well last week was a long week and so i am hoping that this week will be alot better.Poor ms kennedy has been tortured to the fullest. having to go to the doctor everyday and have the infection squeezed out of her leg. But she went to the doctor yesterday and he said she doesn't have to go back unless it gets bad. But the swelling went down and she can walk and run again. It was kinda nice having her just sitting on the couch but i also had to right at her side cause she would call my name every 5 minuates to get her something. she is so spoiled, she got new dora crocs(cause her foot would not fit into anything) and a new baby doll. she felt like it was christmas. poor bryer, he was kinda going through a little jealousy because she was getting all the attention.
well gotta get back to work
make sure to vote!
